Black Box Warning
|
Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS)
See full prescribing information for complete Boxed Warning.
Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS), including serious or life-threatening reactions, can occur in patients receiving LUNSUMIO. Clinical signs and symptoms of CRS includes fever, chills, hypotension, tachycardia, hypoxia, and headache along with neurologic adverse reactions such as confusional state, and anxiety. Initiate treatment with the LUNSUMIO step-up dosing schedule to reduce the risk of CRS. Withhold LUNSUMIO until CRS resolves or permanently discontinue based on severity. Patients who experience CRS should be evaluated and advised not to drive and refrain from operating heavy machinery.

Initiate treatment with the LUNSUMIO step-up dosing schedule to reduce the risk of CRS. Withhold LUNSUMIO until CRS resolves or permanently discontinue based on severity. Patients who experience CRS should be evaluated and advised not to drive and refrain from operating heavy machinery.

- Cytokine Release Syndrome
Clinical signs and symptoms of CRS included fever, chills, hypotension, tachycardia, and hypoxia. Concurrent neurologic adverse reactions occurred in 6% of patients and included headache, confusional state, and anxiety.
Start the therapy with a step-up dosing schedule to reduce the risk of CRS. Always provide pretreatment with corticosteroids, antihistamines and antipyretic before LUNSUMIO therapy and ensure adequate hydration with monitoring during the treatment. At the first sign of CRS, the patient should be immediately evaluated for hospitalization and the drug should be withheld or discontinued. Patients are also advised to refrain from driving or operating heavy operating machines due to the possibility of impaired consciousness.
- neurological toxicity
the most common presentations were headache, peripheral neuropathies, dizziness, and sometimes altered mental status like disturbance in attention, cognitive disorder, delirium, encephalopathy, and somnolence.
Patients who experience tremors, dizziness, insomnia, or other adverse reactions that impair consciousness should undergo potential neurological evaluation and refrain from driving or operating on heavy machines.
- infection
Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infection prior to and during treatment with LUNSUMIO. LUNSUMIO should not be administered in the presence of active infection.
Caution should be exercised when considering the use of LUNSUMIO in patients with a history of recurring or chronic infections (e.g., chronic, active Epstein-Barr Virus), with underlying conditions that may predispose to infections or who have had significant prior immunosuppressive treatment.
LUNSUMIO can cause anemia, thrombocytopenia, or leukopenia. Regularly monitor the patient while they are on LUNSUMIO. Discontinue LUNSUMIO if there is significant cytopenia and consider initiating granulocyte colony-stimulating factor as applicable.
- tumor flare
Some patients may experience manifestations such as new or worsening pleural effusions, localized pain and swelling at the sites of lymphoma lesions, and tumor inflammation.
Close monitoring should be provided during the initial phase of the treatment for patients who have bulky tumors or disease located near their vital organs like the trachea, or spleen since the tumor can flare up and cause secondary complications due to obstruction or compression.
- embryo-fetal toxicity
LUNSUMIO can cause fetal toxicity if given to a pregnant woman. Therefore, all the females of the reproductive age group are advised to be effective contraceptives during the treatment phase with LUNSUMIO and continue the contraception for 3 months until the last dose.
Adverse Reactions
Clinical Trials Experience
Clinical Trials Experience
In an open-label, multicenter, multi-cohort study consisting of 218 patients with hematological malignancy, patients received step-up doses of 1 mg on Cycle 1 Day 1 and 2 mg on Cycle 1 Day 8, followed by 60 mg on Cycle 1 Day 15, and 60 mg on Cycle 2 Day 1, then 30 mg every 3 weeks in subsequent cycles. Among 218 patients who received LUNSUMIO in the treatment cycle which was for 21 days, 52% were exposed for at least 8 cycles and 8% were exposed for 17 cycles.
In this pooled population, the most common (≥ 20%) adverse reactions were cytokine release syndrome (39%), fatigue (36%), rash (34%), pyrexia (24%), and headache (21%). The most common laboratory abnormalities (≥ 10%) were decreased lymphocyte count (92%), decreased phosphate (41%), increased glucose (40%), decreased neutrophil count (38%), increased uric acid (15%), decreased white blood cell count (22%), and decreased hemoglobin (19%).
Postmarketing Experience
There is limited information regarding Mosunetuzumab-axgb Postmarketing Experience in the drug label.
Drug Interactions
- LUNSUMIO interacts with drugs, which are metabolized by CYP450 enzyme.
- Since LUNSUMIO releases cytokines that suppress the CYP450 enzyme leading to increased exposure of CYP450 substrates.
- Monitor for toxicity or concentrations of drugs that are CYP450 substrates where minimal concentration changes may lead to serious adverse reactions.
Use in Specific Populations
Pregnancy
Pregnancy Category (FDA): X
LUNSUMIO can cause fetal harm if administered to pregnant women due to its mechanism of action. Since Human immunoglobulin IgG can cross the placenta , this Mosunetuzumab-axgb can reach the fetal blood and target the CD-20 of fetal B-cells. Mosunetuzumab-axgb can also cause T-cell activation and cytokine release leading to immune activation which may compromise pregnancy maintenance. Therefore, all the pregnant women should be advised of the potential risk to their fetus.
Pregnancy Category (AUS):
There is no Australian Drug Evaluation Committee (ADEC) guidance on usage of Mosunetuzumab-axgb in women who are pregnant.
Labor and Delivery
Verify pregnancy status in females of reproductive potential prior to initiating LUNSUMIO.
Nursing Mothers
There is no information regarding the presence of mosunetuzumab-axgb in human milk, the effect on the breastfed child, or milk production. However, there is a potential for fetal absorption of mosunetuzumab-axgb from breast milk since Human IgG is present in human milk. As a result, women are counseled to avoid breastfeeding during the treatment phase of LUNSUMIO and for 3 months after the last dose.
Pediatric Use
The safety and efficacy of LUNSUMIO have not been established in pediatric patients.
Geriatic Use
Among the studies, there is an insufficient number of patients 65 years of age or older and 75 years of age or older to assess whether there are differences in safety or effectiveness in patients 65 years of age and older.
Gender
females of reproductive age group are advised use effective contraception during treatment with LUNSUMIO and for 3 months after the last dose.
Race
There is no FDA guidance on the use of Mosunetuzumab-axgb with respect to specific racial populations.
Renal Impairment
There is no FDA guidance on the use of Mosunetuzumab-axgb in patients with renal impairment.
Hepatic Impairment
There is no FDA guidance on the use of Mosunetuzumab-axgb in patients with hepatic impairment.
Females of Reproductive Potential and Males
females of reproductive age group are advised use effective contraception during treatment with LUNSUMIO and for 3 months after the last dose.
Immunocompromised Patients
LUNSUMIO can cause an adverse effect of significant cytopenia increasing the risk of infection. Therefore, LUNSUMIO is contraindicated in patients who are immunocompromised or currently on immunosuppressive drugs. Patients on LANSUMIO should be closely monitored for laboratory abnormalities and should be started on granulocyte colony-stimulating factor if applicable.
